Forget UFS. Since 10.4.0 there's been a case-sensitive HFS+ (better support
than UFS). You have to create the partition as case-sensitive (i.e. at
partitioning time), but if you're using case-sensitive, then your test yields
both Test and test.
In terms of accessibility, Linux has fs drivers that read HFS+ fine, and I
assume that the *BSD use a port of the OSX driver (open-source, as is the
rest of the Darwin system the OSX runs on).
